Not so funny joke of the day.

[CompyTech]

Customer breaks part off in machine, screams they want a loaner. Why would we give you a good working copier when you can't even operate your current machine correctly?

Working in the healthcare industry I hear "I think it's about time for an upgrade". Usually this is said when they have had repeated jams because of feed rollers. I have found that if I say "you know that's a great idea, instead of putting an $8 set of feed rollers on, let's go talk to your boss about buying a new machine."

majority of of the time they laugh. Once the joke was on me when we actually talked to their boss and they bought a new machine! Now, I just keep my mouth shut.

I see this too sometimes.. Hey, if it gets a sale for the company, why not? You get paid either way. Lol!

You know the type of joke you hear routinely from customers like, "I have a hammer if you want to borrow it" or "that machine would make a good fishing drop" or "I hope you can get that back together."

I get this shit all day long, add your own favorite.

They park their machine in a tiny inaccessible space, and if you ask whether you could move it to a place where you can actually work on it, they look at you like you've just asked for the soul of their first-born!

Yup specially when you are testing the equipment and the customer is watching and waititng for it to jam, and they always say "...its not doing it because you're here, but once you leave it jams..."

Everytime I hear that…pulp fiction pops into my mind. "Say it one more time…I dare you…" lol, good times.

I just tell them it's because office equipment fears me!

Had to shut down a young punk who thought he was going to be funny today. He says " anyone ever called you ricoh suave?", I roll my eyes and come back with "only for the last 20 years". Later he says "Have you ever seen the printer smashing scene in office space?", I just give an evil smile, a wink, and reply "I keep my BFH out in the car buddy."

Its been doing that since you were here... response, well we were here 4 months ago, with a smile.

Yeah I get the old "Well it's working because you are here." line all the time. I always tell them it's my special aura and then guarantee it until I leave the parking lot.

I sometimes tell them "You would work too, if someone threatened to take you apart."
